Chapter 104 The Secret in the Prime Minister's Mansion



Huang gritted her teeth when she said this.

"Just wait for this matter. We in the Prime Minister's Office will investigate it thoroughly. These five hundred taels of silver will not be thrown away casually!"

Qian Ruocheng said.

"Mother, where is the five hundred taels of silver?"

"It's obvious that she is deliberately deceiving us. In my opinion, the box is filled with blue bricks, blue bricks!"

Then Qian Ruocheng spoke to Qian Ruoyu in an extremely arrogant manner.

"Go ahead and find your prince! Go find the prefect of Jingzhao and ask them to come and investigate. I don't believe you could be so kind as to bring 500 taels of silver!"

Until this point, Qian Ruocheng hadn't figured out Qian Ruoyu's intentions.

But Huang, who was standing by, was extremely frightened and held Qian Ruocheng with a guilty conscience.

"Cheng'er, forget it... forget it! We are the ones who are in the wrong first, let's investigate it carefully first, maybe the money can still be found..."

Although he said this, Huang had already decided to swallow this loss!

If I had known things would be like this, I would not have brought my son to get involved in this mess. If Butler Liu had come alone, I would have pushed him out directly.

At worst, Butler Liu would be executed, and he would not be able to have any relationship with himself and his son.

That is why she persuaded Qian Ruocheng, because Qian Ruocheng has not yet fully understood the interests involved in this matter.

Qian Ruocheng couldn't understand why Huang wanted to stop him.

"Mother, there is clearly not five hundred taels of silver in there. How can you possibly believe her words?"

"Let her sue the authorities! Even if she turns our Prime Minister's Mansion upside down, we have never accepted any money from her!"

Qian Ruoyu just had a smug look on his face.

"If you really want me to leave, it won't be too late for me to leave now. Or I can give you half an hour to think of a way to get the five hundred taels of silver back."

Qian Ruoyu had just finished speaking when Huang immediately nodded and made the decision.

"Okay, then give us half an hour, and we'll find you five hundred taels of silver—"

After hearing this, Qian Ruoyu took Yan'er and more than 20 servants and left the yard.

Qian Ruoyu brought these servants with him just to give him courage, so it was naturally impossible for him to let these servants come out to testify.

The only person who could be used to testify was his trusted maid Yan'er, and Qian Ruoyu was not reassured by what these servants said.

After all, these servants may or may not tell Chu Mobai.

Besides, this is still in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so Qian Ruoyu needs these twenty-odd servants to help him give himself courage. After making sure that Huang and the others had no ill intentions, Qian Ruoyu asked these twenty-odd servants to wait at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion again.

The servants had already received Qian Ruoyu's message, so they naturally obeyed his orders. Although they didn't do anything, they already had the silver in their hands.

Qian Ruoyu was still wandering around the Prime Minister's Mansion, savoring all his previous experiences there.

After all, these are everything that the owner of this body possesses, and when Qian Ruoyu walked in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she only felt relaxed and happy.

At this moment, Qian Ruoyu saw two middle-aged men in casual clothes walking into the Prime Minister's Mansion after being greeted by several servants.

Qian Ruoyu knew these servants. They were once the close subordinates of her biological father Qian Hongyi.

And the fact that these servants were in the Prime Minister's Mansion at this time meant that his biological father Qian Hongyi was also in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

My biological father is in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Butler Liu will definitely tell him that he has returned home, but my biological father really doesn't care about this matter at all.

And when she saw those middle-aged men walking in with a furtive look on their faces, Qian Ruoyu knew that something big might be going on.

Qian Ruoyu glanced at Yan'er beside her and knew that Yan'er could not get involved in this matter casually.

Therefore, Qian Ruoyu asked Yan'er to return to the courtyard of her childhood, and Qian Ruoyu followed in alone.

Following these people into the central courtyard, the two middle-aged men also entered the central courtyard hall.

This central courtyard hall is the most central location in the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is also where Qian Hongyi works. No one else is allowed to enter.

In Qian Ruoyu's childhood memory, he had gone in there once when he was a child.

The hall in the central courtyard is not small. In addition to the middle hall, it is divided into two small halls on the left and right.

There is a large table in the middle of the central hall, and the furnishings inside are just like a yamen.

The two small halls on the left and right, one is a study, and the other is a storage warehouse. In the warehouse, there are dozens of different boxes of different sizes.

The gate of the warehouse that looked like a storage facility was actually an iron door. In Qian Ruoyu's childhood memory, the big iron door was only opened once. It was also at that time that Qian Ruoyu realized that there were dozens of different boxes of different sizes inside.

After the two middle-aged men entered the central courtyard hall, they left two servants guarding the door, and the others followed them in.

The paper windows in the central courtyard hall are specially customized and not as thin as those in other rooms. Even if it is extremely bright inside, one still cannot see clearly what is going on inside from the outside.

Moreover, there were people guarding the entrance to the central courtyard hall, making it even more impossible for Qian Ruoyu to get close.

Seeing this mysterious posture, Qian Ruoyu's curiosity was aroused. She wanted to know what those two middle-aged men in plain clothes were trying to do.

Because Qian Ruoyu could tell at a glance that those two people were obviously officials of the current dynasty. Even though they were wearing casual clothes, it was too easy for Qian Ruoyu, the daughter of the prime minister, to identify them!

It would have been fine if two officials of the current dynasty came to the Prime Minister's Mansion in person, but they also looked so sneaky, which naturally surprised Qian Ruoyu.

At this moment, the door of the central courtyard hall opened, and a middle-aged man walked out and walked quickly towards the outer door.

Not long after, he came back again, but this time there were six people following him, and every two of them were carrying a small box.

What do they want to do?

After Qian Ruoyu left, Qian Ruocheng spoke even louder.

"Mother, this money obviously has nothing to do with us. We don't need to be afraid of her. If she has the ability, let her find the money herself. It has nothing to do with us anyway!"

Butler Liu at the side also echoed.

"That's right, Madam, how could this matter have anything to do with us? I think there might only be blue bricks in there. The young master is right."

However, Huang, who knew the interests involved, spoke directly.

"What do you know?"
